Nikolai’s body moved before his mind reacted—the first male jumped at him with a swipe of his claws while another tried to stab at his chest. Before the attacks on his body, Nikolai’s blood art activated.

At the moment of activation, he felt time slowing down.

Now able to move and react faster than 0.02 seconds, allowing Nikolai to counterattack the first two males.

He twisted his hips before slamming the first male with a left hook, breaking his nose and cheek with a brutal impact. Then, following up, using his left leg, he smashed into the second attacker with his knee.

The blade aimed at his chest snapped towards the opposite direction along with his entire arm.

Crack—!

“Shit!”

The first attack dropped to the ground as he gasped for air through his distorted nose.

“Argh!” The second man held his arm while screaming before flying over the desk from the aftershock of Nikolai’s attack.

Before the next attack, Nikolai went on the offensive, jumping over a desk and flying into the group of four men with a dropkick.

Bang—!

His massive legs knocked away two, cracking their bones.

Nikolai had learned much about fighting. There were many styles of martial arts and many masters of said art in this new world. So, learning all that he could was vital to mastering fighting.

Alexei taught him boxing and monster-style kickboxing, but sometimes, he liked to use wrestling moves due to his upbringing and watching the WWC while growing up.

“What are you fools doing?! Get him!”

There were four men left able to fight, while Nikolai took two punches to his face, trying to get to his feet. The lesser thralls of the Hati family only caused his cheek to itch as he faced off against the boss and four men. He narrowed his eyes, looking at them with a snarl. Two to his left and two on the opposite side of the boss.

‘I feel like the training is starting to make a difference… I can use my body parts more effectively.’

“Haaa!”

The two close to him swiped with their claws while Nikolai blocked with his right and dodged the second attacker with a slip. Nikolai’s fist smashed into the male’s gut—before the other man attacked him, Nikolai spun around to attack from behind with a rapid roundhouse kick. Crack—!

The attacker’s ribs snapped before Nikolai slammed an elbow into the side of the man’s head.

A feeling of pleasure flowed into Nikolai as the blood crystals from these werewolves flowed into him rapidly, the most he hunted in the tower. The faster Nikolai learned to absorb the power of other monsters. And the easier it became, the less he lost during the transfer.

Nikolai ducked before landing an uppercut underneath the last lackey’s chin. Then he dashed forward, stepping over the desks to end him before he recovered. But the leader kicked Nikolai in his chest, cracking his sternum before sending him into a wall.

“Nikolai?! You fucker… how dare you!”

Bang—!

Nikolai grunted and winced at the sudden pain spreading throughout his chest. He felt the wall crumble behind him while a ferocious aura exploded from her body as Nikita shouted at the fat leader.

‘Damn I was a little too careless, expecting my blood art to always activate is a dangerous move.’

“I was a little too cocky…”

Immediately pushed himself to his feet with a slight wheeze from his chest. “Phew…” Nikolai adjusted his mind and tactics, reflecting on his actions while feeling the warmth of his body regenerating rapidly.

Of course, his strength wasn’t just limited to being in his human form… the armour given to him by Alexei now took the form of bracers and anklets.

“Shall we continue, fat man?”

“Tsk, you fucking dog!”

The male stood from his chair, a short man who looked barely over five feet tall. With wide shoulders and long limbs, if not for the beer belly, he’d be much more intimidating.

Nikolai’s constant training had toned his body, making this man seem especially small in comparison. This short and round man was far more muscular than his outward appearance suggested.

“Are you sure Nikolai?!” A soft weight wrapped around Nikolai’s body as Nikita kissed his lips, her tail waving with joy.

“Don’t mess with us!”

“You bitch!”

The two surviving wolves and the boss growled, insulted by the pair flirting while in the middle of a fight.

Nikolai kissed her back, swirling his tongue around Nikita’s sweet mouth before pulling her hand off his waist. He enjoyed her touch, but their fun would have to come after their victory.

He slowly raised his arms, taking a fighting stance as Alexei taught him.

Then his feet began to bounce slightly as his lips curled upwards, revealing his sharp fangs.

“Let’s fight.” His blue eyes glimmered as his blood art activated.

Two minutes later, Nikolai stood above the cowering fat male while Nikita sat on a chair, sucking on a cherry-coloured lolly.

“So~ where is the meeting REALLY being held, fatty?” Her pale fingers smudged through the blood splatter that coated the side of the man’s face as she hummed a joyful tune.

While Nikolai patted away the dust covering his body and gazed at the pair, she twirled her lollipop in circles.

“Guh, damn dogs! We’re so close to freedom, just get this bastard away from me!”

“Mmmm, good point.” She leaned towards the shaking wolf and pressed the button of the recorder device hidden under the desk, shutting off the recording function with an audible beep.

“We’ll trick that little slut into attacking this building, while we raid her…” A voice began playing, the fat man’s voice. It was a recorder that Nikita seemed to have placed in the room beforehand.

“Oh? I am a little slut now… hahaha!” Nikita’s eyes became violent as they narrowed. With the flick of her fingers, a blade penetrated the crotch of the fat male, and soon blood oozed down his leg as he fell onto his ass.

“Argghh! Stop!”

“Fuck you, Manager Guava! Where is there base! Tell me you filthy piece of shit!” Nikita’s fingers twirled, revealing several daggers rolling around her hand. She looked at the fat male like dirt.

‘It turned out his name is Guava… but this guy is miserable.’

Nikolai gazed around the room, his pupils turning red to scan for any dangers, his hand placed on Nikita’s back as if to give her support.

He’d never seen such a cold look in his usually bright lover’s eyes. There were no enemies left alive except the fat leader, who now crouched on the ground as blood flowed out of his dick.

‘I shouldn’t say anything since she did all this for me, otherwise their foot troops would have don this mission.’

‘Nikita wants to gradually get me used to their reality.’

“P-Please… I cannot say… they will kill my family!” The fat manager finally spoke as the colour drained from his face. Sweat drenched his brow while blood continued to stain the front of his pants.

Guava appeared to have some backbone because the next thing he said made Nikolai shiver…

Nikita pointed a dagger at Guava’s head.

“They’re already dead. I sent my men to gut them like the little piggies they are.” Then, with a small flourish, the silver blade in Nikita’s hands disappeared and was replaced with a phone as she answered the buzzing handset.

“Oh? It’s finished? Good work, Uncle!”

Beep—!

The moment she closed the call, her lips curled into a distorted smile while her eyes narrowed into a ferocious glare.

“If you helped sooner, maybe we could have let you to speak, but too bad…”

Nikola thought that Nikita’s twisted and violent smile was especially lovely when the moonlight from the darkness poured into the room, causing the shadows to fall on her beautiful face.

Although a normal person might find her frightening or strange, he found this contrast captivating.

‘Hmm…’

“You… Marina… Lua… how could you?!” Nikolai stepped forward before the wolf-man climbed to his feet.

Guava, grabbing onto the desk behind him, seemed prepared to lunge at Nikita. Nikolai didn’t have to intervene, but the fat male screamed in rage as Nikolai rushed at him and speared him through the glass door to the left of the room.

Shatter—!

Glass fragments sprayed all around as Nikolai landed inside an enormous bathroom with the boss underneath him. Nikolai was straddling Guava while holding the top of his throat. Guava struggled like an enraged boar as he tried to buck Nikolai off of him but failed due to his strength.

Inside the bathroom were various girls tied to the metal bars… all quivering and looking malnourished.

“Hahahahahah!” Nikita’s wild laughter echoed off the cold white walls as she stepped inside. “Sorry I lied, your wife is fine, but she’s enjoying another mans cock right now.” The dirty R-dialect of Nikita made the vulgar words seem even more degrading.

“She ran away as soon as we offered her some money… Haha!”

“Y-you fucking dog bitch!”

Thud!

Crack—!

Before Guava could respond, Nikita slapped him with an open palm that cracked one of his canine teeth.

“Peh…” the fat male spat out his bloody tooth while looking up at Nikolai with fearful eyes as his jaw began swelling.

“Tell us, after all… Lua isn’t even your daughter! Hahaha~ it’s the son of the Hati clan’s captain!” Nikita’s mocking laughter caused the young women trapped behind Nikolai to cry and moan in sorrow.

They didn’t know the language but trembled in fear because of their memories and trauma.

Their once beautiful bodies had been destroyed and mutilated, each limb twisted, broken, and healed wrong… causing their skin to peel and bunch up at their joints.

‘It’s disgusting… to make humans like this just for perverted pleasure…’

Nikolai understood the dirty uses of these women when he noticed their missing front teeth.
